Matt,

Use Wait, for example

Application.Wait (Now + Time("0:00:10"))

waits 10 seconds.

Hi

does anyone know a good way of producing a delay in a
macro
so that it reveals hidden objects and data and waits
between lines of code over a defined time period?

i have used a bit of code below which produces a delay
of
approx 1 second - however this runs much faster than 1
second on some faster colleagues computers

For z = 1 To 2000
Range("a1").Select
Next z

as an alternative i also used the code below which
produces
a one second delay but i cannot adapt it to produce
fraction of a second delays

newHour = Hour(Now())
newMinute = Minute(Now())
newSecond = Second(Now()) + 1
waitTime = TimeSerial(newHour, newMinute, newSecond)
Application.Wait waitTime

any advice greatly appreciated to give exact 1/4, 1/2
and
whole second delays
